Read More6 / 6
During a Solar Eclipse, Concorde could fly fast enough to remaining within totality, the shadow of the moon, for an extended period. F-WTSS did this during 1973. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHLyypLk-0w
During the 1999 eclipse two British Concordes, G-BOAA and G-BOAC, and the French F-BVFC flew special charters to chase the path of totality.
